Toverland is on the brink of an exciting decade filled with innovation and expansion. The recently published land-use plan reveals a series of ambitious projects that are set to redefine the park experience in the coming years. These planned ventures include the construction of a new resort, the introduction of two thematic areas, and the opening of a luxurious hotel.
Ithaka Resort: A New Gem in Toverland's Crown
The commencement of the extensive expansion plans is marked by the start of construction for the Ithaka Resort in 2024. Adjacent to the existing Ithaka thematic area, the resort is expected to open its doors to visitors in 2025. The technical drawings released yesterday indicate an impressive facility that will enhance Toverland's offerings with a high-quality accommodation option.
Attraction Renewal and Thematic World Expansion
In the same year, Toverland also plans to replace one of its popular attractions. However, the specifics of which attraction will be replaced remain a closely guarded secret. The next significant step is scheduled for 2027 with the commencement of construction for the seventh thematic area, which is expected to celebrate its opening in 2028. Another thematic area is planned for 2032, with its opening in the following year. These new areas are set to enrich the Toverland experience with new, fascinating worlds.
A Hotel Project Setting New Standards
A highlight of the development plan is the Toverland Hotel. Construction is planned to begin in 2029, with hopes to welcome guests starting from 2030. This hotel project promises to become an attraction for visitors who wish to enjoy not just the park, but also a luxurious stay.
Visionary Planning: Capacities and Permits
The development plan allows for a hotel with up to 800 rooms and eight stories, as well as an additional 710 accommodations such as holiday apartments or campsites. However, these figures are merely guidelines reflecting Toverland's long-term vision. Each major expansion is carefully planned and requires individual construction permits to meet the park's high-quality standards.
Visitor Numbers: A Glimpse into the Future
In 2022, Toverland welcomed over one million visitors. The new plan anticipates a potential increase to up to 3.74 million visitors annually by 2046. This figure includes both day and overnight guests, with the daily maximum visitor capacity potentially rising to 25,000 to 30,000 guests.
Public Participation and Final Decisions
Currently, the development plan is available for public review at the Horst aan de Maas municipality. This public participation phase allows residents and interested parties to express their opinions and concerns about the plan. After considering this feedbacks, the municipal council will make a final decision about the future of the amusement park.
Conclusion: Toverland - A Park with a Vision
With its ambitious plans, Toverland stands on the threshold of a new era. The planned expansions and modernization promise to elevate the park experience to a new level and will surely position Toverland as one of the leading amusement parks in Europe. With a clear focus on the future and a strong commitment to quality and innovation, Toverland will continue to delight and fascinate millions of visitors.
